The Most Famous Scooter Riders Are…

#5. Raymond Warner

Starting off the list is Mr. Envy Scooters himself Raymond Warner! Kids everywhere love R-Dubbs content my son tunes in every single time he releases a video. “Mom guess what R dubb did” was his favorite conversation starter. What I personally love about him is creating wholesome, original content is like breathing for him. Keeping things engaging and entertaining on YouTube isn’t easy but he does an excellent job.

#4. Kota

Dakota Schuetz was responsible for so much progression in the world of scooter riding, along with brother Hunter they championed scooters as a real action sport all over the world.
